Abstract

Disclosed is a linear actuator, including a drive motor, a transmission assembly, a rotary screw, a transmission nut, a clutch device, a self-locking device and a hand-pull release assembly. The clutch device is arranged between the transmission assembly and the rotary screw. The self-locking device is configured to generate frictional resistance to the rotary screw when the rotary screw rotates reversely, and the self-locking device includes a release torsion spring. The hand-pull release assembly includes a first driving member connected with the clutch device and a second driving member connected with the self-locking device, and has an initial state and a fully released state. During the process from the initial state to the fully released state, the first driving member drives the clutch device to disconnect power, and the second driving member drives the release torsion spring to extend.
